What is the Estimate at Completion (EAC) for the project, if the work is performed at the budgeted rate?

Select one

$24,000

$36,000

$22,500

$37,000

Which of the following statements about the planned value, the earned value, the schedule variance, and the cost variance of a project is false?

The schedule variance is the difference between the earned value and the planned value.

The earned value is the value of work to be completed in terms of the approved budget.

The planned value is the budget authorized for the work to be performed.

During the course of the project, the project management team developed a forecast for the estimate at completion (EAC) based on the project performance. Which of the following statements about EAC is correct?

Select one

The EAC forecast based on the Bottom-up estimate to complete (ETC) requires a new estimate.

The EAC forecast is best estimated using the estimate to complete (ETC) work performed considering both SPI and CPI factors.

The EAC forecast is best estimated using the estimate to complete (ETC) work performed at the budgeted rate.
